Posted July 24, 201212 yr Second single from these guys and the follow up to their top 5 debut 'When She Was Mine' from May... uqsSKINniQQ As this is the best pop single of 2012 (for me, anyway) so far in my view it deserves number 1 for them, they're great lads and I'd love to see them do well. It will probably however get top 5 again knowing this country but I don't know...what do you guys think?
July 24, 201212 yr It's nothing ground-breaking but pretty inoffensive, I went for top 3 assuming there isn't much competition that week.
July 24, 201212 yr Author It's nothing ground-breaking but pretty inoffensive, I went for top 3 assuming there isn't much competition that week. 30th Jul A$AP Rocky - Goldie Calvin Harris feat Example – We'll Be Coming Back (CDS+12”) Childish Gambino – Fire Fly Drake feat Rick Ross - Lord Knows Drumsound & Bassline Smith – Through The Night Far East Movement feat Cover Drive - Turn Up The Love Gym Class Heroes feat Ryan Tedder - The Fighter Ian Carey & Rosette feat Timbaland & Brasco – Amnesia Jodie Connor feat Busta Rhymes - Take You There Karima Francis – Glory Days M83 – OK Pal Netsky – Love Has Gone Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds - Everybody's On The Run (CDS+12”) Opossom – Blue Meanies Rumer - Sara Smile Tom Jones - Tower Of Song Train - 50 Ways To Say Goodbye Various Cruelties - Chemicals Wiley feat Ms D – Heatwave Yolanda B Cool feat Crystal Waters – Le Bump 6th Aug Alex Clare – Hummingbird Basshunter – Northern Light Drake feat The Weeknd - Crew Love Lawson - Taking Over Me Linkin Park - Lost In The Echo Madonna – Turn Up The Radio Maxsta – I Wanna Rock Niki & The Dove – Somebody Of Monsters And Men – Little Talks Pet Shop Boys – Winner (CDS) Redlight – Lost In Your Love Ronan Parke – We Are Shooting Stars Ryan O'Shaughnessy - No Name Sam Gray - This Girl Slow Club - Beginners Spiritualized – Little Girl (7”) I'd say looking at all that lot their biggest competition would be the Calvin Harris and Example one that's out next week. Possibly Far East Movement and Ryan O'Shaughnessy as well...
July 24, 201212 yr I said top 3, because it's good airplay and they seem to have a fanbase, plus there isn't too much competition. I wouldn'tmind it going top 10 tbh, it isn't the best song out there but it's far better than When She Was Mine so on that premise it should do at least as well.
July 24, 201212 yr Its a pretty decent song actually. If When She Was Mine got all the way to number 4 with just Capital support, then I think this stands a very good chance of getting to number 1, I think only Calvin Harris/Wiley could stop them.
July 24, 201212 yr Top 3 as I'm hoping that through some miracle Basshunter gets the #1 that week :kink:
July 25, 201212 yr I picked 'top 5' as 'expect', but unfortunately there was no 'flop' option for 'want', so I had to pick the lowest available option for it.
July 25, 201212 yr I said Top 10, it's a nice summery song, but not a classic. I think it'll be beaten by Calvin & Example or Rita. I doubt Wiley will be number 1.
July 25, 201212 yr Picked top 3 for both, as Gavin said it's a proper summer song, I would not begrudge it going to #1, but Calample have probably got it in the bag.

July 27, 201212 yr Top 10 bare minimum, most likely #1-3 due to Global Radio buying playing the song. Very bland and inoffensive...at least with this single they're not ripping off Spanish Eurovision songs in the chorus ;)
July 31, 201212 yr Author Well I'm glad to see a couple of people agree with me re: this sounding like a number 1. I'd really love it to be number 1 for them. Fingers crossed!
July 31, 201212 yr Well on all the Capital and Heart websites, as Lawson are signed to the company which owns the stations, they have an pre-order link for the new single - can't believe the plugging that they do, it's ridiculous!
July 31, 201212 yr I think it will go top #3 but I'm not mad about it so I'd rather it just went top 10. No doubt it's going to completely freefall in the weeks after though.
July 31, 201212 yr Author Well on all the Capital and Heart websites, as Lawson are signed to the company which owns the stations, they have an pre-order link for the new single - can't believe the plugging that they do, it's ridiculous! They do it with The Wanted and Cover Drive as well...there's little point complaining about it now really - they tried to back in 2010 when The Wanted's 'Heart Vacancy' was out the same week as Joe McElderry's debut single and it caused a bit of media attention and furore but nothing more. It's no different to the secret deal that Prestige Management - the team who were responsible for managing Busted, McFly and V (remember them?) had to have all three acts appearing/performing on CD:UK pretty much every single week in 2004. The difference I'd say with Lawson is that they aren't middling and half hearted like The Wanted are - their album's out in October and I've heard bits of it that are really promising. They're more of a 'band' band than The Wanted are which will certainly work in their favour in the long run.

I do remember V actually - had their album :lol: Edited July 31, 201212 yr by TheNowMusicUK
